SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Oil prices rose in early Asian trading on Wednesday after signs of a dip in U.S. production, but trading was cautious ahead of an anxiously awaited reading on China's growth pulse.

Front-month Brent crude futures LCOc1 were trading up 42 cents a $58.85 a barrel by 0141 GMT, while U.S. crude CLc1 had risen 38 cents to $53.67.
